Is Henderson costing us points, game after game, by receiving a short ball from the keeper? I think hat if anything he helps with ball retention most of the time. Him being thick at defending or wasting passes: that’s costing us.
It's also bollocks because he had Milner, Moreno, Gomez, Matip and Klavan on the pitch and could have gone 5 at the back with them any time he wanted .... Lallana for Coutinho didn't change that.
It’s obviously not all on Henderson or indeed any one individual. But the scenario I’ve described is a weakness and we keep on playing to it...and that’s utter madness.
Klopp's just trying to mask the fact that he should have brought Mane on at least ten minutes earlier. Blaming the referee is pathetic. Even the Kop were urging him to bring Mane on by singing his name so why can the manager not see what the crowd clearly can. It might benefit Klopp to sit higher in the stands so he gets a better view of the pitch because the decisions he makes from the touchline are strange at times.
He's been largely excellent in all of his cameos and yesterday was head and shoulders above most of the team, Salah aside, in both an attacking and defensive sense. It was a superb touch too, and an instinctive move, to put Salah in. He's now definitely in contention for one of the starting slots. Heavy competition there now though with Lallana returning too.
Yes, but it's also bollocks if a ref interprets the intentions of a possible substitution. The ref generally had a very good game but that decision, if true, was completely out of order.
This is utter wank. He was good enough, he had a good few years of progression culminating in the season we finished 2nd, he then had an injury which threatened his career.
As ever, there are enough faults in the team to bang on about, but your monotony is focused on your primary hate. As I've said previously, Lallana is coming into the team now on the back of a lengthy spell out, so I eagerly await you jumping on his every performance now, telling everyone how terrible he "always was".
It baffling really, that our once great striker is getting away with it in your head, as is our Spanish (so obviously tippy tappy great) left back who has been notoriously more horendous than anyone, our joke of a goalkeeper and the likes of Gini and Can, the former who is the absolute epitome of the word "passenger".
Henderson is out of position and out of sorts, fine, we don't need to be reminded of it everytime you post. It's like when you tried to tell everyone that Carragher was "always shit", when he got a bit over the hill. Add rinse and repeat for Gerrard, Henderson and now Lallana probably.
Yet you championed that fucking gobshite Brazilian midfielder for what seemed like decades. Because he's Brazilian, probably.
How did Gomez do again yesterday? Do you not want to pick the bones out of yet another mistake ridden performance from him? No?
At least it's better than that fucking tragedy at the foot of Modo's profile, just.I wrote this poem about Jordan Henderson
Well that's your opinion. I think he was wank, and most of you except Rurik is noticing it now, because it's blatantly obvious. Someone posted a stat on twitter that also showed that we concede a lot more goals with Henderson on the pitch than with Lucas or Can at DM.
Don't make this about him being English hes just shit.
No one is "noticing it now" you fucking idiot, he's underperforming now, that doesn't mean he always was. Are you seriously this fucking myopic?
Wow. It really bothers you that I was right about him. Let it go.
Fuck me. Coming from the cunt who's still crying everyday about Lucas and Rafa.
No he hasn't. Was he shit in the season we finished 2nd? Was he bollocks.
Like I and others have said a million times on here, it's posts like this that expose you as an obvious wind up merchant. How you're still here I don't know, you're a joke of a poster who offers nothing to the forum, other than derailing every match thread.
I thought Gomez was pretty solid Mark - he's going to be a good one.
Lucas was the greatest player we've ever had - an amazing DM who's dominating serie A now and we'd be in 1st place if we had kept him. Horrific mistake by Klopp

Yeah, I'll take that, even by recent standards with the likes of Alonso, Gerrard and Mascherano. That midfield deserved to win the title, and only a United side with a front three of Ronaldo, Rooney and Tevez stopped it from doing so. We'd be brilliant with just one of them and a Sami right now.
He made errors again, but I am a huge fan, he's got alot of potential and he's gradually becoming more consistent and dominant.
He earned that captaincy for the right reasons at the time, he was performing well and he was very grounded and vocal off the pitch, especially infront of the media. But yeah, he's no driving force or instructor on the pitch, there's no kind of obvious respect in terms of players looking to him for guidance or inspiration. And he doesn't have a particular ourstanding quality that can single handedly win us games, which would make him an otherwise obvious captain.
There aren't many (any?) players in the team that tick any of those boxes. Maybe Coutinho and that's only because he's usually the catalyst for good performances.
He pulled out of a 50/50 at 1 0, just outside our box , which is not like him. Not good, I think he's still covering up an injury.
Or fearing an injury, but either way, not giving everything isn't good enough.
It was a mistake by Klopp to not replace Lucas and if you've followed the Italian league Lucas has been a revelation for Lazio this season and has even done better than Biglia did in the same position last season. That's not my opinion, that's their fans and the media's opinion.
But yes Lucas would have done a whole lot better than Henderson has.
We just don't have a captain any more. The only choice is Milner, maybe Klopp is scared of pissing Henderson off. Which would again be a new low.
Italian footy is slow and shit, so that makes sense.
I think he's trying out zonal tackling or something
